Drama
A staple for us and for many if you fancy a more traditional play. When we first started Everything Theatre it was specifically to review drama. We’ve branched out over the years, but it will always be a favourite of ours.
-
Review: Mother Courage and Her Children, Shakespeare’s Globe
An enthusiastic, if flawed, re-imagining
-
Review: Assata Taught Me, Riverside Studios
Compelling depiction of a memorable woman - Assata Olugbala Shakur (1947-2026)
-
Review: Drunk Girls Cry Here, The Hope Theatre
This comedy drama promises to show what really takes place in female facilities.
-
Review: Visite, Coronet Theatre
A gloriously entertaining wordless work that captures the universality of life.
-
Review: Stage Kiss, Hampstead Theatre
Incisive wit, humour, and honesty, cleverly staged and delivered.
-
Review: Sherlock Holmes, Regents Park Open Air Theatre
A lazy script and scattershot plotting can't rescue this shouty Holmes adaptation, despite enthusiastic performances and a starring revolving stage.
-
Review: Five, Lion and Unicorn Theatre
A play about our obsessions with true crime podcasts has plenty of promise, but falls on its lack of realism in important moments.
-
Review: Krapp’s Last Tape/ Godot’s To-Do List, Royal Court Theatre
Two impressive pieces thoughtfully brought together, with the power of the human voice at the forefront.
-
Review: I’m Not Being Funny, Bush Theatre
A delicate exploration of why humour so often accompanies grief.
-
Review: An Adequate Abridgement of Boarding School Life as a Homo, Riverside Studios
Ned Blackburn’s raw and moving play follows Johnny as he struggles with sexuality and identity in a culture obsessed with masculinity and rugby.
